Periods of Modular GL2-type Abelian Varieties and p-adic Integration

&
 

ABSTRACT

Let F be a number field and an integral ideal. Let f be a modular newform over F of level with rational Fourier coefficients. Under certain additional conditions, Guitart and colleagues [CitationGuitart et al. 16] constructed a p-adic lattice which is conjectured to be the Tate lattice of an elliptic curve Ef whose L-function equals that of f. The aim of this note is to generalize this construction when the Hecke eigenvalues of f generate a number field of degree d ⩾ 1, in which case the geometric object associated with f is expected to be, in general, an abelian variety Af of dimension d. We also provide numerical evidence supporting the conjectural construction in the case of abelian surfaces.

Notes

2 In the context of L-simple algebras, by a subfield of D′ one understands a field contained in D′ and that contains L. But this is the case for M. Indeed, the compositum LM is a subfield in this sense, and therefore its dimension over is ⩽ 2d; then it has to equal 2d and LM = M.

3 We remark that the construction of the lattice works for any choice of signs at infinity, and we expect Conjecture 3.3 to hold for any choice. However, our numerical experiments have been done for eigenclasses with eigenvalues + 1 at infinity, so we prefer to consider this case.
